About Lynn Nickens

Lynn Nickens is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in California with 3 years of experience in the behavioral health field. She brings a practical, person-centered approach to work with people facing a range of challenges, including stress and anxiety, anger management, life transitions such as grief and elder care, trauma and abuse, and concerns related to cultural diversity.

She emphasizes collaboration rather than directive guidance. Instead of telling clients what to do, she partners with them to explore the emotional events that led to seeking counseling, to identify possible solutions, and to develop new ways of responding to longstanding difficulties. That process is intended to build understanding and workable strategies for moving forward.

As an LCSW - a license that authorizes clinical social work practice - she focuses on helping clients create practical, sustainable changes in how they cope with life stressors and relationship challenges. Lynn offers supportive, solution-oriented guidance to help people address and resolve the concerns that brought them to therapy.
